Yesterday was Savannah's day to win at
Memphis. Campaus two home runs and
Reilly's one were d little too much for Jack
Sneed's Aggregation TO stand up under.
There was considerable money on the game
and the most of it was staked on Memphis
winning. The betting element thought that
it had sure thing and odds all the way
from three to ten were offered on Savannah.
Quite a crowd was at the Theatre, ex-
pecting that the game would be
reported in detail, bat the storm interfered
so seriously with the working OF the
wires that it was impossible TO get anything
like a satisfactory report, and the Theatre
was not opened.
The score was bulletjned at 6 o'clock.
1t took some time for the Mempluans'
hackers to make up their minds that II was
all right and that the score was not to
in favor of Memphi, instead of Savannah.
considerable money changed hands, ana
good deal of il went into the pockets of bet

anything like the odds that many did.

was very slippery but both teams played
an excellent game, Campau made two
home runs and Reilly one for the visitors,
and Andrews knocked the ball over the
right field fence for Memphis. Those who
witnessed the game enjoyed it exceedingly,
as it was hotly contested throughout, both
teams being on their mettle and play
ing for ali they were worth.
